Brewing for a Cause<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hospice Huntsville is excited to announce the return of a very special brew. This week, Canvas Brewing Company will be canning the exclusive craft beer \u201cHaskap Harvest Kolsch\u201d.  Canvas will be donating a portion from every Haskap Harvest Kolsch product sold to Hospice Huntsville.  New this year, Canvas will also be selling this exclusive brew on tap and donating a $1.00 from every pint sold. 
\u201cThe Haskap Harvest Kolsch is a fruity twist on our classic Original Brew. The Haskap berry is a northern superfruit with notes of blueberry sweetness and cranberry tartness.  We infused our Original Kolsch-style ale with the extract of the haskap berry to create a brew with a bready and fruity sweetness and a slightly tart crisp finish. Canvas is so excited to be a part of this fundraiser and we hope you enjoy this beer as much as we enjoyed making it.\u201d  Head Brewer, Seguin Sailors<\/p>\n\n\n\n
